Rockwell Collins is leveraging work on its Pro Line Fusion integrated avionics suite, selected for several business and regional jets, for the new Embraer KC-390 military transport (above), while flight deck displays for the new Boeing KC-46A aerial refueling tanker (below) are modeled after those on the Boeing 787 Dreamliner.

With the award last summer of a $160 million contract to provide avionics for the U.S. Air Force KC-10 Extender aerial refueling tanker, Rockwell Collins (Booth Q79) became the primary avionics supplier for all USAF tankers. The U.S. manufacturer recently completed a fleetwide update of systems on the KC-135 Stratotanker, and will provide flight deck displays and other systems on its replacement, the KC-46A.
